Away From It All
I am fortunate to have a part-time job in a very humane company. Once in a while I am asked to work 9-5 though, and on these days, being indoors, sitting all day, becomes a challenge for me.
What gets me through these long days is my lunch break, when I can go outside and walk for a full hour. The building where I work is at the top of a big hill, so I can always get a challenging walk.
One day, I discovered a "nature trail" just off the sidewalk, so I explored it. It was a lovely little world, and I was having so much fun in it that I promptly got lost! Within ten minutes, I could not see a building or hear a car. It took me several nervous minutes to find my way back to the corporate world, but part of me definitely wanted to stay lost.
